点评:I’ve been enjoying Weston’s cider for the last 15 years before the tour existed, but never found the right time to visit before yesterday.
It was a lovely day which helped as there’s a few key parts of the tour that are outside (although I’m sure there are contingencies for wet days). Jenny our tour guide was knowledgeable about all areas of the factory and process, and you can tell she loves her role. We were all a little excited to see the first apples of the year in the pits, as they hadn’t been there for the morning tours, and weren’t expected in til next month!
The factory is bigger than I’d always thought from the gates leading in to the restaurant/shop area, but quite compact given the amount of cider produced!
The tasting at the end was fun and the shop is very reasonably priced for all varieties of cider.
翻译:早在韦斯顿苹果酒之旅开始前的15年里,我就一直很喜欢它,但直到昨天才找到合适的时间去参观。
那天天气很好,这很有帮助,因为这次参观的几个关键部分都在户外(不过我相信下雨天还是需要一些应急措施)。我们的导游珍妮对工厂的各个方面和生产流程都了如指掌,看得出来她热爱自己的工作。看到今年第一批苹果在果核里,我们都有点兴奋,因为早上的参观时它们还没到,而且预计要到下个月才会到!
从通往餐厅/商店区的大门来看,工厂比我想象的要大,但考虑到生产的苹果酒数量,它还是很紧凑的!
最后的品酒会很有趣,而且这家商店里各种苹果酒的价格都非常合理。
